Vaping, social media safety, fake news, mind health and AI are the new lessons that pre-teens and teenagers now need as the world races into a tech-driven future.
Dean McCoubrey, founder of MySociaLife, an online safety platform dedicated to equipping teens and pre-teens with essential digital life skills, has recognised that these are a few of the challenges young people face today.
Recognising that education does not exist in a vacuum, McCoubrey says if students, parents, and teachers each do just 15% better, we are collectively 45% better off. It truly takes a village.
As schools and parents navigate the complexities of a changing education landscape, there is a growing recognition that students need more than traditional academic instruction.
They require tools and knowledge to thrive in a digital world, given the adoption of devices and the explosion of AI.
